John Wilkinson, Tory MP for Ruislip and Northwood: "There have been many years of dedicated effort to save the cancer centre and build on the outstanding services.

"It is imperative that cancer services stay at Mount Vernon. On one site they have clinical services, cancer research and other facilities all in an ideal location.

"I am speaking not just on behalf of Ruislip and Northwood, but I genuinely believe that Mount Vernon is the best location for cancer treatment in and around North West London."
